@silagechopper I ride dressage. Rodeo is my secret, guilty pleasure. Those are some nice rides 😃

My mom was permanently disabled in a rodeo accident in 1993. And I lost most of her stuff in my house fire in 2001. These were sent to me today. 1 was Badlands circuit finals and 1 was Black Hills stock show. Both were in 1990 on a horse she gave $300 for and trained herself.

A mother's physiology responds to the needs of her preterm child. It produces milk with higher and different fat and protein composition to support brain health, contains additional antibodies that protect from infection and NEC after an early delivery. Breast milk is superior nutrition for preterm infants. In NICUs, breast milk is considered liquid gold. It can be supplemented with formula if needed.

Breastfeeding helps. It isn’t magic, moral, or universally available. Framing it as “God-given” policy nudges shame, not health. Formula is a safe, regulated necessity for millions—preterm births, meds, supply failure. Outcomes track care and nutrition, not sermons. cdc.gov/infantnutritio… TYFYTATM 🧯

RFK Jr: “Corporate America has not produced an infant formula that is superior … to the infant formula that God made, which is the infant formula in a mother’s breast.” “We at HHS are encouraging mothers to breastfeed as long as possible.” “There is no better food for your brain, for your gut microbiome, for your physical growth, for your emotional growth than what’s in God-given breast milk.” @SecKennedy

@SteveHiltonx @NEWSMAX Newsom can't read and can't do basic math. He is functionally illiterate and therefore never developed the ability to think analytically. He depends on what people (interested "specialists", unions, vendors) tell him without critical questions.

Gavin Newsom spent SEVEN YEARS and HALF A BILLION DOLLARS of our money on a new phone system for California's emergency response. It didn't work and was just scrapped. How can Newsom possibly be president when he can't even make a phone line work with half a billion dollars?

“I was up there in the hills with these guys. When we all turned around. When my hair literally burst. There’s a video of it. And they threw me in a car and a guy hit my hair, throws me in the car and says get the f**k out of here.” - Gavin Newsom, lying

@TheKevinDalton well then it must be true 😆

Found the video

Sting's comment about "Don't Stand So Close to Me" "I'd done teaching practice at secondary schools and been through the business of having 15-year-old girls fancying me - and me really fancying them! How I kept my hands off them I don't know... Then there was my love for Lolita which I think is a brilliant novel."

@Hot_Pepper76 Don't stand so close to me. It's about a college school girl stalking her teacher.

A little music trivia: What 1983 Police song features lyrics about stalking? Sting has explicitly stated that the song is "very, very sinister and ugly."

@TheFigen_ H-O-H

You can?

@AMAZlNGNATURE My barn has indoor stalls with runs off the back. I typically let the horses have free indoor/outdoor access. They love standing in the rain.

Explain this

@BuzzPatterson I have a traditional Weber kettle BBQ that uses charcoal. I start it with a charcoal chimney. To cook pizza, I just use a pizza stone and cover on it. Works great.

Hey guys, I’m looking for a good outdoor pizza oven for a Christmas gift. I’ve never owned one. Any recommendations?

@CynicalPublius One of my early riding instructors was from the pre WWII Hungarian Cavalry. His name was Gabor Foltenyi. He was elderly when I knew him ... an amazing talent.

📸MORE VACATION PHOTOGRAPHY📸 One of the amazing things I saw in Hungary was the equestrian skills of the Hungarian Horsemen. Clad in traditional garb, this guy is steering a six horse team by standing on the rumps of the two last horses. And he was moving at high speed. Crazy.

@MadameGilflurt I get it. I'm cooking and baking for Thanksgiving today and tomorrow so I'm not going put much effort into dressing until Thursday.

I thought you’d like to see what I’m wearing today. Couldn’t be bothered to make an effort! #frockingFabulous

It is a very common thing to misuse the word empathy, especially as it relates to trans ideology. Empathy is the experience of understanding and sharing another person's feelings, literally feeling what they feel. It is not possible for a normal person to have empathy for a trans person. There is no way to translate their mental illness into something that anyone else can feel. It is possible to be sympathetic towards trans individuals. I am, as I would be for someone suffering from another mental illness. I can be sympathetic towards someone who has depression without being depressed myself. I believe trans people do suffer. I have pity for that. But it's beyond my ability or obligation to treat their affliction. I certainly wouldn't want to be married to one, especially if they had dishonestly kept it hidden for decades. And I don't believe it is healthy to support their delusions.

@RayAlexWilliams Why is everyone here being a transphobic asshat?

Heterosexual crossdresser with a secret stash of women’s clothes comes out as trans to his wife, who immediately (and rightly) suspects it’s a fetish (AGP), divorces him, and he has the GALL to say HE’S the victim because she was looking for an “easy way out” of the marriage.

@MrMagspie "Transmisogynists"? 😆

Won’t someone think of the men?!

@bobsenergyguru @JebraFaushay I ride dressage IRL and I've been doing this for years to help me learn the tests.

Would you consider this to be “retarded?”

You may want to rephrase your arguement because life is recognized to begin at conception. That is an established fact in the medical community. Post-fertilization, the zygote is a unique human entity from a genetic perspective. The distinction between a zygote and a live baby is only a question of development. acpeds.org/when-human-lif…

Interesting. I'm pro choice, I dont believe that a fertilized egg is a person, and I support abortion. But like any sane and reasonable person, my support isn't absolute and I think that reasonable restrictions should be placed on it. I believe even most pro choice ppl believe there should be reasonable restrictions on abortion, and its worth discussing what is "reasonable" in this context. Anybody who thinks an 8 month old fetus, which can live outside the womb and is only considered "not a person" by the few cm of skin on its mother's belly separating it from the outside world, is an abortion zealot and not a reasonable person. I was under the impression that no respectable doctor would perform an abortion at such a late stage (barring dire circumstances such as immediate threat to the mothers life), but to hear this may be done fairly routinely is concerning. In my opinion, the locus of the abortion debate needs to be shifted from the question "should abortion be legal or not" to "when do you believe personhood begins?". I think this will make it a much more productive can lower the emotional temperature. After all, if two ppl disagree on when life begins, theres absolutely no point in having any type of debate on the topic because we're discussing teo different things. As I said, I'm pro choice, but if I genuinely believed life begins at conception, then of course I would be pro life. A pro life position flows naturally from that belief, under the princeple of bodily autonomy of the child. Likewise, if one genuinely believes that a zygote is NOT a person, then a pro choice position flows naturally from THAT belief, under the principle of bodily autonomy of the mother. When we frame it that way, we can humanize the debate, and need not accuse someone with a pro choice position as "baby killers" nor do we need to accuse someone with a pro life position as "women haters". Both are wrong, and that discourse has completely poisoned this discussion. The solution to this debate is to spend our efforts discussing exactly where "personhood" begins. Of course there is never going to be a clean pivot point for that, there wont be an exact date or time, the best we can do as a society is try to arrive at a clearly defined point in pregnancy where a reasonable person would believe that personhood has begun. So lets assume that any reasonable person accepts that somewhere between conception, and 9 months lies the development of "personhood". If someone believes that a newborn baby is a legal person, but wasnt one 5 minutes ago when still in their mother's belly, thats their right, but that's clearly an extreme and unreasonable position and one I think very few ppl would hold. To me, the obvious candidates are: - conception - detection of fetal heartbeat (approx 6 weeks) - viability outside the womb ( approx 24 weeks) None of these have any evidence behind them. They're all based on vibes and feels, but unfortunately, in this debate, that's all we have. Personally, I lean towards detection of fetal heartbeat as an indicator of personhood but I could be persuaded of viability. Its an emotional and complex debate, as we are trying to balance two competing sets of legitimate rights (the right of a person to life and the right of the mother to bodily autonomy) but I think at a bare minimum, restrictions on elective abortion (i.e. abortion where there is no risk of life to the mother) after 24 weeks is more or less where policy should lie on this issue. Do you agree or disagree with this? Why or why not? (Let's keep it respectful and focus on the issues) Im curious as to what you guys think. Im putting a series of polls in the next couple posts about this issue, will be interesting to see where public opinion lies.

@TalkTervosaurus @LitteHOnline @sappholives83 We women need to stop living in the past. If you marry a man who doesn't treat you as an equal partner in your own household in this day and age, you have no one but yourself to blame.

@LitteHOnline @sappholives83 No dear. As a woman of probably a similar age, you are making the same mistake you probably did the first time you heard a woman say no. You forgot to listen and started defending yourself from accusations that hadn't been made against you

If you’re a man, and wondering how you can help women fight this nonsense, call it out publicly. This is perfect - and we need more male voices like his. These trans creeps see women as things. When other men confront them, they can’t brush it off.

@Jasongriffithz @JackPosobiec That's not murder.

@JackPosobiec Well I'm not crying for George but the dude was cuffed and other cops were standing around and he's kneeling on him for how long? He may not have choked him to death but he definitely contributed to his death

I'll say it again Derek Chauvin didn't murder George Floyd

The first responsibility and #1 priority for any first responder is to control the scene of an incident to protect themselves and anyone else who is in the vicinity. That is what every first responder is trained to do by a number of different techniques. As I understand it, the hold that Chauvin used on Floyd was one which was approved and he was trained to use, so it was not negligence.

He made a choice not to protect the person in his custody. It doesn't matter what kind of person they may have been. That's the job of the Court system to decide. Aside from a life or death decision at any given moment, that situation was under control and should have been turned over to EMS with Police escort shortly after. Choices have consequences. Following the law is not an option people have made it out to be lately. He may not of "murdered" him but he didn't help to save him either. That is called negligence.

@itsmorganariel @MCNoBSFinance I have a 7 month old Samoyed puppy. She needs about 3+ hours a day of work (walks, ball chasing and games) and lots of opportunities for chewing to be reasonably calm. Yes, it's a lot, but that is what she needs at the moment.

@MCNoBSFinance He gets a lot of exercise. No human being has 24 hours a day to entertain their pet and no matter how much activity I give him it doesn’t change his behavior towards other animals which is the issue I’m having. Not really sure why you’re attacking me lol.

Do any dog trainers follow me? I love my mini goldendoodle but he is the most high strung and behaviorally challenging dog I have ever owned. He is the sweetest thing but is extremely reactive. When I take him out in public he gets so excited around people and other animals that he can’t be controlled. This is posing an issue with the new kitten in our home. He gets in his face and is jumpy and barks at him which scares him. He’s the friendliest little guy ever and just wants to play and say hi but he does not respect personal space. I have been working so hard to train him over the last 10 months and there’s not much progress. I’m losing hope. 😪
